Are you ready to fall in love?

Pour a cuppa and come home to the country with these ten short stories from Australia’s small-town storyteller and bestselling author of House for all Seasons* and the Calingarry Crossing Collection.

THAT TIME IN TANGLEWOOD

The Timekeeper’s Store

A watchmaker can’t control time; he can only set the hands. What happens after he returns the timepiece is up to the owner.

Sew Special

Audrey’s tiny alteration business can’t prevent her life from falling apart at the seams any more than it can mend her broken heart. That will take someone special.

About Midnight

Who is Claudia more afraid of losing? Jack, the boyfriend? Or Ben, the best mate?

Lost in Lingerie

Could the cute customer in the Akubra hat take out Nina’s Weirdo of the Week Award?

A Suitcase by the Door

Zippers! The noise coming from the spare room-the suitcase zipping shut-is the tiny sound that screams someone is leaving someone.

***

ONE FRIDAY IN SUNFLOWER

Swept Away

Life’s special moments usually flash before a person’s eyes moments before death. Reporter, Sally O'Neill, sees a headline: Washed Up Before She’s Even Begun!

A Penny for your Thoughts

The coin will decide for him. Heads, he’ll do it without delay. Tails, it can wait.

Geronimo

Grayce was thirty-eight when she jumped, but with nothing much to say.

Quick was easy. Brief was best. A single word more than enough.

The Male Run

Dr Ellie Porter doesn’t know ‘a male run’ is what she needs until the day her sister gives her one.

Some Days are Diamonds

She’s on her way to the fortieth floor to say yes-to a marriage proposal and a penthouse apartment in Paris-when a city-wide power outage traps her in an elevator with country lad, Mack Pratt.
